Where do
you get your “religion” news? Maybe CNN.com? Time magazine? The New York Times? Truth is, many
journalists just don't GET religion. Thankfully, Hugh Hewitt does. [http://www.hughhewitt.com/blog/].
Beginning at 7pm TONIGHT, Hugh
Hewitt - attorney, law professor, television commentator and nationally
syndicated radio host - will present: “Who is going to
lead? Moral character and the future of American public life" in

Order
your own “Sacrificium” bracelet today!
It’s inching closer! March 9 is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of
Lent. This year, the archdiocesan Office
of Liturgy is offering an aid to remind parishioners of the sacrifice
they’re attempting to make and the reason they’re making it, throughout the 40
days of Lent. The project is called “Sacrificium”
(“Sacrifice”).
The project consists of a promise
card, upon which people write what they intend to give up for Lent; a personal
reminder card which spells out the fasting, abstinence and sacrifices the person
will do; and a black band imprinted with the word, “Sacrificium,” which the person wears on
their wrist throughout Lent.
For more information, read the front page story in this
week's 2/23 DCR at www.archden.org/dcr. To request your
Sacrificium bracelet, contact
your parish office or the archdiocesan Office of Liturgy at 303-715-3156 or liturgy.office@archden.org.
